Is the pooping problem only for two weeks? After that will you be able to walk to the toilet?
@verticalpush A 4 star hotel I had stayed in had not agreed to accept food deliveries, forget delivering to my room. I had to go wait outside in the cold for the delivery. It's great that your hotel is nice and accommodating. Would you mind telling which hotel for everyone to know?
Thanks @lalbadshah for the response!

Agree on Ronnie - he is a real gem. Good idea about Dan, I will try to find his card and keep it handy in case I need his advice any time.
I know you did without caretaker, it is just that if you think of some variables - if some things might have turned a little different/negative you may have had issues without a caretaker (think about Fallen774's case - on his fifth day diary) - that is why my personal recommendation/believe is not to to without any caretaker at all, at night of course you don't need. Yes man, the problem is the minimum hours commitment thing, I agree.
Actually it seems we were able to poop on same day (post surgery), and I must thank you for that because - I was able to poop only after taking what you recommended (dulcolax) - it came out like a big anaconda coming out from my ass 
. LOL. Though my peeing seemed to have been easier than yours - I was peeling well with catheter on and even after catheter off I peed well.
You are right, each passing day is better than previous one. man, when you are planning to be back to Henderson (whenever) let me know (here or PM) and we will see if there is any date when both of us plan to be here and can meet. All the best bro.
Awesome man! It might be that I need to have the google voice app open. I have it open now so if there's any problems calling me again let me know.
Glad the dulcolax trick worked! I was so uncomfortable by day 4 that it was such an amazing relief when I was finally able to go. Also glad you could pee so fast after the catheter was removed. You described having the catheter removed perfectly. It's such a weird feeling. I think the pressure they put on me to pee within 5 hours or so (I forgot what the time limit was) was what did me in, and if it wasn't for Dr. D. telling them to wait longer for me to pee then I would have been in for a lot more pain!
You make a very good point about possibly falling without a caretaker. I had my phone set up so I could yell "Hey Siri" across the room and hopefully be able to call the front desk and have someone come help me but you're right it's not a good situation to be in. I was pretty stressed out the first couple of days worrying something bad would happen. Yeah, it only takes one fall for everything to fall apart.
Haven't figured out my next trip out to Henderson but I'll definitely let you know what I'm thinking. Would love it if everything aligns and we can meet up!
Take care bro.

I am targeting minimum 6.5, maximum 7.5 cm. Regarding 'starting inseam (crotch to floor)' - I don't know, never measured. All the best for your journey.
